    League in NZ was going to go to the next level with the arrival of the Warriors in the ARL in 1995... Who’d have thought the Warriors and David Kidwell would do so much for rugby union in New Zealand...

    Looks like it did go to the next level, just down, not up...

      I'm not disappointed or angry. Fuck these fluffybunnies. The Warriors crushed any league expectations for NZ teams for me.

      Did anyone except the bloke who hired him ever think Kidwell was a good appointments?

      Over paid over hyped shitcunts who no one should ever have faith in.

        Exactly how much do they get paid for that shitshow?

        Fiji were demonstrably better, I'm sure the stats will back me up, and if there is any credit at all due to this Kiwis side it's that a 4-2 loss flattered them.

              So much for Kidwell wanting to restore the pride and culture in the Kiwis jersey. He basically killed any pride and turned the culture into a losing one.

                His only contribution was the great poetic saying: "The Key is the We". The moment he said that I knew We were fucked.

                    If I was Kidwell I would kick their sorry arses all the way round NZ and back again - only a solitary penalty scored against - Fiji? That's just pitiful. They don't deserve to wear the Kiwi jersey.

                      They wish - that would imply the Kiwi’s were coached or had any work ethic.

                          That’ll be one of Adam Blair’s positives “we lived up to expectations”.

                                    Funny watching and reading everything afterwards. SJ’s petulance, Blair’s fuckwittedness, and Kidwell’s lack of insight to immediately resign suggest that result was foretold months ago.

                                          I still think SJ is a seriously talented player but the chief playmaking role given to him by the warriors and the kiwis doesn't seem to suit him ,

                                          Too late now but Maybe fullback would've suited him more
